With as many problems as all women leaders in male-dominated fields are faced within their profession and workplace, it looks like there is never enough time and resources to solve each one without encountering hardships on the way. Problems keep escalating so fast that often times leaders are forced to take shortcuts to briefly ease the tension points and find solutions to the next problem. As a result, they fail to solve the root of each problem, therefore remaining in an ending-cycle that makes it an uphill task to find any effective solution. That’s where ZeroGap.co. comes in handy. We curate leadership learning experiences to help companies to be more innovative and competitive while tapping into a diverse talent pool. Why does this matter, focusing on women in male-dominated industries? There are numerous reports that show that companies who are diverse in leadership, they innovate and drive higher profitability than those companies who aren't as diverse. At the end of the day, we're all in business

Companies in male-dominated industries have an awesome opportunity to be competitive and innovative with a diverse team. A recent research shows that companies that embrace diversity in leadership innovate at a faster rate, increase profitability, and pride themselves in better employee engagement and retention than their competitors who have non-diverse leadership teams. Additionally, companies with diverse teams are better at problem-solving, have a broader client base and more engaged customers leading to increased revenues. Therefore, diversity is crucial for any business and there’s a huge untapped lucrative potential for those leaders who do not yet use diversity as a significant tactic for growth, innovation, and competitiveness in their companies. In today’s episode of PowerBanking, we're talking about leading teams using the LATTE Method. What is LATTE? LATTE is an acronym. It's a negotiation framework.

Bonus Episode w/ Jacqueline Twillie, President of ZeroGap.co on the Fearless Freed with Dr. G podcast.  What scares you as an entrepreneurial woman? Does fear and anxiety keep you from achieving your goals in life? It is human nature to sidestep unavoidable situations and emotions that scare us. Who wants to walk straight into something that promises to be a painful and intimidating experience?

Fortunately, you can learn how to overcome, ease and eliminate fear. Whether it’s fear of failure, fear losing money, poverty, avoiding risks, or any other fear, it should not stop you
